In June, the temperature rose rapidly, and it didn't drop much even at night.
Whenever I go outside, I feel inexplicably hot and restless.
This made the two furry little guys feel very uncomfortable.
Xu Qiaoqiao was alright, but Jun Qi, who was such a big guy, didn't want to go out during the day at all, and had turned himself into a temporary "nocturnal animal".
To coordinate with Jun Qi's actions, Xu Qiaoqiao changed her daily routine to be almost the same as his.
Moreover, the lighting was poor at night, so she couldn't see the bald patches on her body. Therefore, Xu Qiaoqiao was quite happy and very supportive of the idea of operating at night.
Arctic foxes shed their fur in the summer to adapt to changes in temperature and environment, which also helps them stay cool.
Xu Qiaoqiao wagged her tail, and just as she was about to hug it, she saw that it was completely bare. Feeling a little resentful, she put it down with a pitiful expression.
Waaaaah~ The shedding is about to start again, this is so awful.
Jun Qi was the first to notice the shedding, but Xu Qiaoqiao was probably having too much fun lately and forgot about it.
Jun Qi habitually stroked her fur. He was holding the little fox, and when he saw the little fox's fluffy tail, his paws itched to stroke Xu Qiaoqiao's tail.
He blinked and glanced at the little fox, who had her eyes half-closed and looked quite content.
Jun Qi was relieved, and a smile flashed in his eyes. Actually, Xu Qiaoqiao didn't forbid Jun Qi from touching her tail, but for some reason, this guy always attacked her from the shadows.
But every time he did this, Xu Qiaoqiao would get scared.
Jun Qi had just started kneading it.
Xu Qiaoqiao felt a shiver run through her body.
She yelled and quickly scrambled out of Jun Qi's arms.
At the same time, he watched the other party warily.
Junjun, you've become bad.
This is a statement of fact.
Jun Qi chuckled, then released his grip, and both of them saw a lot of white fur fall from Jun Qi's hand.
These hairs were whiter than Jun Qi's own, and their length and fluffiness were also different.
Watching these white feathers drift lightly to the ground.
Xu Qiaoqiao fell silent.
Her expression was somewhat blank.
Jun Qi didn't know what was going on, but he also fell silent.
Time seemed to stand still between the two of them.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Xu Qiaoqiao's expression finally changed.
"Gah!!"
She screamed, her voice more shrill than before, and filled with her owner's unspoken anger.
It's shedding!!!
Xu Qiaoqiao quickly grabbed her big tail, raised her trembling paws, carefully pinched a single hair, and pulled it out. She didn't use much force, but the hair was easily pulled off.
Summer is here, how could she have forgotten about this?
Xu Qiaoqiao's face showed an unpleasant expression, her lips were drooping, and she looked particularly unhappy.
In summer, they shed a lot of fur.
Oh no, I'm going to have to run naked again, waaaaah~ that'll look so ugly.
Xu Qiaoqiao doesn't consider herself a looks-obsessed person, but she still hopes to look a little prettier and cuter. You see, she was overjoyed when she first found out she was dressed as an Arctic fox.
Seeing the little fox's lifeless expression, Jun Qi thought that his actions had upset her, so he quickly started chirping in front of her, trying to distract her.
However, Xu Qiaoqiao had no interest in paying attention to him at all.
Because of this matter, Jun Qi couldn't sleep well for several days, and Xu Qiaoqiao was the same.
However, the reasons vary.
Moreover, in order to make Xu Qiaoqiao happy, Jun Qi would also take the initiative to pick wild fruits. He could eat these wild fruits, but they did not help his own energy at all.
Simply put, it's just a matter of venting.
With Jun Qi's help and Xu Qiaoqiao's own optimistic attitude, Xu Qiaoqiao's listless mood finally improved a lot.
However, she doesn't seem very happy.
It seems that what happened that day set a switch. After that, every time Xu Qiaoqiao woke up, she would find some of her hair stuck to Jun Qi's body, and every time she scratched him, a claw of hair would be pulled out.
Xu Qiaoqiao: ...
Jun Qi moved the seabird he had caught to Xu Qiaoqiao's front, along with some fruit he had picked earlier. He looked at the little fox with sparkling eyes; these were all her favorite foods.
He hoped the little fox would be happy.
If he could speak, he would probably apologize to Xu Qiaoqiao every day.
By the end of June, Xu Qiaoqiao had completely lost all her body hair. This time, the hair loss was faster than the last time, which was also because Xu Qiaoqiao herself had actively plucked it.
Since they're going to fall out sooner or later anyway, it's better to let them fall out sooner. That way, every now and then there will be a bald patch, and she won't be able to ignore it.
Especially that lump of fat on my stomach!
They could all be made into two-story structures!
Xu Qiaoqiao: Waaaaah~
She has indeed gained weight.
And that weight loss method is really useless.
Looking at herself, which resembled two layers of flesh, Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow. "I want my white fur! I want my fluffy, fluffy fur! That would at least cover me up!"
Unfortunately, this bald patch will only last for two or three months.
I reckon my fur won't grow back before the next migration.
It's awful!
Xu Qiaoqiao felt even sadder. She remembered the last time she shed hair, even though she looked terrible, she was still a skinny person.
